    The Earth’s soil contains 2,500 gigatons of carbon, more than 3X the amount in the atmosphere. Our topsoil is in danger. Over the past century, 1/3 has been depleted. To reach net zero, we need soil to absorb carbon. The potential is huge—but we're moving in the wrong direction.

    If we can switch 90% of electricity worldwide to zero emission sources by 2035, we will see a 16.5 gigaton reduction in emissions — per year. To slow climate change, decarbonizing our grid isn't just an option — it's a necessity.
